Not many details, so I'll describe what I encountered. If that doesn't apply, you'll have to provide more info. My first search yielded lots of results for a broken rear door handle. Ours wasn't broken, but it was sticking. The handle would pull in but wouldn't return. Lots of detailed instructions online, but basically while inside the van, remove the 2 bolts from the handle and the bolt from the pull strap, then remove the panel.
Whilst sitting inside the van, key lock is left of the handle, with a rod connecting to the latch at the bottom. The latch has a J shaped slot with a plastic pin protruding. If pin is in the bottom part of the J, the door is locked; unlocking the door should move the pin to the top part of the J. You can test moving the rod up to lock, or down to unlock.
The problem I found was that something was binding, preventing the return spring from doing its job. The J was in the wrong position, so the door wouldn't unlock. I suspect either replace or lube the cable from handle to latch mechanism. Hope this helps. -D
